PROSECCO AREA
CONEGLIANO VALDOBBIADENE PROSECCO DOCG,
ASOLO / COLLI ASOLANI PROSECCO DOCG
Prosecco was produced as far back as Roman times using the Glera grape which
initially grew near the village of Prosecco on the hills above Trieste.
In the 18th century, cultivation of Glera expanded throughout the hills of Veneto and
Friuli. The Prosecco we know today was first produced at the beginning of the 20th
century using second fermentation in tanks – Charmat method.
Glera grape was called prosecco when the sparkling started being successful.
The producers of Prosecco however realised that a grape variety can’t be
geographically delimited and protected. And some winemakers, especially from
Austalia, were producing it in large quantities.
In 2009 Veneto registered the word Prosecco as a region taking advantage of the fact
that Prosecco is also a village in the same area.
So, the region of production became registered in the EU as ‘Prosecco DOC’, and the
grape variety was named Glera, the original name of the grape.
In short, anyone who grows the grape formerly known as Prosecco outside the DOC
cannot use the word Prosecco on the label.
The best areas for growing the grapes for Prosecco are the hills of ASOLO,
VALDOBBIADENE and CONEGLIANO VALDOBBIADENE
At the top of the quality pyramid, the slopes of CARTIZZE.
In 2016 Prosecco production approached 475 million
bottles, significantly more than Champagne

AMARONE DELLA
VALPOLICELLA DOCG
Grapes are harvested very ripe in the first two weeks of October
by carefully select bunches, having berries not too close to each
other, to let the air flow.
Grapes are allowed to dry, traditionally on straw mats.
This process concentrates sugars and flavours.
AMARONE DELLA
VALPOLICELLA DOCG
Before an Amarone can be sold it has to age for at least 2 YEARS on
oak, but many wineries willingly store the wine for 5 YEARS
according to older regulations. Riserva ages 4 YEARS min.
Amarone can age for 20-25 years in bottle and can reach ABV of
16/17%

FRIULI VENEZIA GIULIA
MILD CLIMATE
ALPINE CLIMATE
WINDY
(BORA)
The most important influence on Friuli-Venezia Giulia's vineyards is their position
between the Alps and the Adriatic.
This allows the vines to bask in bright sunshine without overheating, allowing the
grapes to develop full phenolic complexity and aromatic depth before their sugar
levels peak.
The area is known predominantly for its white wines which are considered some of
the best examples of Italian wine in that style.
65% VINEYARDS IN PLANE
35% HILLSIDE
landscape characterised by coastal flat
areas, mountains and plateaux.
The soils of the region vary from
the rich marl and sandstone in the hilly
regions to clay, sand and gravel in the
valley
MAINLY INDIGENOUS GRAPES
The soil of Friuli Venezia Giulia, particularly in the Collio region, is known as Ponca in the
Friulano dialect, or Flysch in specific geological terms.
This soil is found throughout the region and is made of marls (chalky clay) and sandstone, two
substances which make soil very rocky. Rich in calcium carbonate and alkalinity, the soil helps to
give the strong mineral notes and aromatic complexity in many of the wines from this region.
Even though Ponca contributes to the region’s most desired wines, it does have its downfalls. In
rainier years it becomes prone to landslides and can destroy entire sections of vineyards in
an instant.

The soil is mainly limestone rich

water carving through rocks.
The result is a stony terroir with
underground caves and cavities,
some of them collapsed. That makes
the land very challenging for
growers

CABERNET F. & S.
White grape variety which was created by
Hermann Müller from the Swiss Canton of
Thurgau in 1882.
It is a crossing of Riesling with Madeleine Royale.
His intention was to combine the intensity and
complexity of the Riesling grape with the ability
to ripen earlier in the season that the Madeleine
grape possesses.
MÜLLER THURGAU
This grape variety is often confused with
another grape variety called Rhine Riesling.
The grapes of this white wine grape variety are
small to medium as to their size and the whole
pulp is layered by a thin skin.
The wine is high in acidity and delicate in aroma.
RIESLING ITALICO
or Welschriesling
GEWÜRZTRAMINER
Gewürz means 'spice' in German, which nicely sums
up the distinctive character of this variety. Its pink skin
at harvest time translates into a golden, deeply
coloured wine, often with a beautiful copper tinge.
Expect scents of sweet spice, roses, lychees, ginger
and hints of grapefruit and white peach. A great
choice if you don't like overt acidity in your whites, as
the grape naturally makes rich, round wines.

Positioned right below Austria at the tiptop of Italy, Alto Adige lies in a ‘Y’ shaped glacial
valley. This little valley used to be the main passage between Italy and the rest of
Europe.
Vineyards in Alto Adige creep up the sides of glacial valleys in horizontal rows.
In Alto Adige the winery estates here are commonly called “Schloss” which is the
German word for castle or chateau.

  • 28. Prosecco was produced as far back as Roman times using the Glera grape which initially grew near the village of Prosecco on the hills above Trieste. In the 18th century, cultivation of Glera expanded throughout the hills of Veneto and Friuli. The Prosecco we know today was first produced at the beginning of the 20th century using second fermentation in tanks – Charmat method.
  • 29. Glera grape was called prosecco when the sparkling started being successful. The producers of Prosecco however realised that a grape variety can’t be geographically delimited and protected. And some winemakers, especially from Austalia, were producing it in large quantities. In 2009 Veneto registered the word Prosecco as a region taking advantage of the fact that Prosecco is also a village in the same area. So, the region of production became registered in the EU as ‘Prosecco DOC’, and the grape variety was named Glera, the original name of the grape. In short, anyone who grows the grape formerly known as Prosecco outside the DOC cannot use the word Prosecco on the label.
  • 30. The best areas for growing the grapes for Prosecco are the hills of ASOLO, VALDOBBIADENE and CONEGLIANO VALDOBBIADENE At the top of the quality pyramid, the slopes of CARTIZZE.
  • 31.
  • 32. In 2016 Prosecco production approached 475 million bottles, significantly more than Champagne

  • 40. VALPOLICELLA DOC Most basic Valpolicellas are light, fragrant, fruity and easy drinking medium body wines. Valpolicella Classico is made from grapes grown in the original Valpolicella production zone. Valpolicella Superiore is aged at least one year and has an alcohol content of at least 12 percent. GRAPES: CORVINA, CORVINONE, RONDINELLA, MOLINARA
  • 41. AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA DOCG GRAPES: CORVINA / CORVINONE 40-70% RONDINELLA 20-40% MOLINARA 5-25% PARTIALLY DRIED GRAPES
  • 42. AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA DOCG Grapes are harvested very ripe in the first two weeks of October by carefully select bunches, having berries not too close to each other, to let the air flow. Grapes are allowed to dry, traditionally on straw mats. This process concentrates sugars and flavours.
  • 43. AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA DOCG Before an Amarone can be sold it has to age for at least 2 YEARS on oak, but many wineries willingly store the wine for 5 YEARS according to older regulations. Riserva ages 4 YEARS min. Amarone can age for 20-25 years in bottle and can reach ABV of 16/17%

  • 55.
  • 56. The most important influence on Friuli-Venezia Giulia's vineyards is their position between the Alps and the Adriatic. This allows the vines to bask in bright sunshine without overheating, allowing the grapes to develop full phenolic complexity and aromatic depth before their sugar levels peak. The area is known predominantly for its white wines which are considered some of the best examples of Italian wine in that style.
  • 57. 65% VINEYARDS IN PLANE 35% HILLSIDE landscape characterised by coastal flat areas, mountains and plateaux. The soils of the region vary from the rich marl and sandstone in the hilly regions to clay, sand and gravel in the valley MAINLY INDIGENOUS GRAPES
  • 58. The soil of Friuli Venezia Giulia, particularly in the Collio region, is known as Ponca in the Friulano dialect, or Flysch in specific geological terms. This soil is found throughout the region and is made of marls (chalky clay) and sandstone, two substances which make soil very rocky. Rich in calcium carbonate and alkalinity, the soil helps to give the strong mineral notes and aromatic complexity in many of the wines from this region. Even though Ponca contributes to the region’s most desired wines, it does have its downfalls. In rainier years it becomes prone to landslides and can destroy entire sections of vineyards in an instant.

  • 72. CARSO VITOSKA PINOT GRIGIO MALVASIA ISTRIANA TERRANO The soil is mainly limestone rich in iron. The landscape is formed by water carving through rocks. The result is a stony terroir with underground caves and cavities, some of them collapsed. That makes the land very challenging for growers

  • 87. White grape variety which was created by Hermann Müller from the Swiss Canton of Thurgau in 1882. It is a crossing of Riesling with Madeleine Royale. His intention was to combine the intensity and complexity of the Riesling grape with the ability to ripen earlier in the season that the Madeleine grape possesses. MÜLLER THURGAU
  • 88. This grape variety is often confused with another grape variety called Rhine Riesling. The grapes of this white wine grape variety are small to medium as to their size and the whole pulp is layered by a thin skin. The wine is high in acidity and delicate in aroma. RIESLING ITALICO or Welschriesling
  • 89. GEWÜRZTRAMINER Gewürz means 'spice' in German, which nicely sums up the distinctive character of this variety. Its pink skin at harvest time translates into a golden, deeply coloured wine, often with a beautiful copper tinge. Expect scents of sweet spice, roses, lychees, ginger and hints of grapefruit and white peach. A great choice if you don't like overt acidity in your whites, as the grape naturally makes rich, round wines.

  • 96. Positioned right below Austria at the tiptop of Italy, Alto Adige lies in a ‘Y’ shaped glacial valley. This little valley used to be the main passage between Italy and the rest of Europe. Vineyards in Alto Adige creep up the sides of glacial valleys in horizontal rows. In Alto Adige the winery estates here are commonly called “Schloss” which is the German word for castle or chateau.
